My old laptop has Mojave running and it gets 867 with a DW1560. No FakePCIID used.

yes, but as said before, the BCM94360 also got 867 with mojave, so maybe this issue is purely catalina related.

need to confirm 867 on catalina before i waste my time solving something no one else has working

I was getting only 434 on Big Sur until I changed my card. After changing, it instantly went to 867.

I don't have Catalina anywhere anymore. Only have one instance of Mojave for 32-bit stuff.
 
i have upgraded from Clover5022 to OpenCore 0.6.4 in hopes it may solve my issues with DW1560, no luck

card is working fine overall, bluetooth is very stable, airdrop works but it very slow compared to BCM94360NG, with that card i was moving 150MB file in just about 6 seconds VS about 4-5 second on a 2017MBP, DW1560 is taking about 10-15 seconds for the same file and sometimes even longer cause has a very big delay before sending

i ordered a DW1830 to try, the card does not fit T440P but i made it fit, airdrop worked about the same as DW1560 but bluetooth did not work, devices were showing but were constantly connecting and disconnecting, also the wireless was limited to an N signal at NSS:3 and 450mbps, should be 1300mbps...

i made one step forward, for the first time ever i have seen more than NSS:1 if i option click on wifi
 
im only getting 434 mbps on big sur still with DW1560

so, i tried many cards

DW1820A
BCM94360NG
DW1560
DW1830

all cards were a pain in some aspect, DW1830 seemed like it had hope but it didnt really fit my setup because of how wide the card is

today i finaly got BCM94360CS2 and its working like a charm, i finaly managed to get a nice 2x2 connection and aidrop transfer speeds are in the 150-200mbps range - 2GB transfer clocked at 1:40

considering i also had a netgear wifi adapter for testing purposes, i have now had to return 5 wifi cards, thank goodness thats over :)

do you use some kext to make airdrop works? I had it work in the past, then change config and now it doesn't work mmm
